An adventurous audio trail for families: Kids search for calf Peppi in the forest damaged by storm Vaia – with puzzles, courage and nature. Ages 6 and up.

The stormy night of Vaia left a trail of destruction across the Latemar forest – and it's the dramatic setting for this immersive family adventure: “Vaia’s Wrath” is an exciting audio trail that tells a story of bravery, teamwork and resilience in nature.

Join siblings Toni and Klara on the search for their lost calf Peppi, who vanished after the storm. But the forest is no longer peaceful: fallen trees, rushing streams and tricky challenges await you on the path.

Through the use of a free app, a narrated audio story, a fun adventure booklet and interactive puzzle stations, children aged 6 to 14 dive into a thrilling tale while discovering the power of the forest. Along the way, they also collect points that contribute to reforesting the area.

A magical hike full of action, learning and unforgettable moments.
